Radopholus similisis a major pest of East African highland cooking bananas (Musaspp.) in Uganda. Non-pathogenic Fusariumoxysporumendophytes, isolated from bananas in farmers’ fields, have shown potential to reduceR. Similis numbers in tissue culture banana. The mechanism through which endophyte...
Beauveria bassiana (Balsamo) Vuillemin, an entomopathogenic fungus, can exist asymptomatically as an endophyte in banana (Musa spp.) and potentially provide management against the banana weevil Cosmopolites sordidus (Germar). However, in order to optimize its biological control potential when dep...
The lack of clean planting material is a major constraint for banana production in East and Central Africa. When establishing new fields, tissue culture plantlets will reduce damage by banana pests and diseases. Pest infestation or reinfestation, however, remains a vital concern. Fungal endophyte...
Beauveria bassiana is considered a virulent pathogen against the banana weevil Cosmopolites sordidus. However, current field application techniques for effective control against this pest remain a limitation and an alternative method for effective field application needs to be investigated. Three...
Endophytic fungi colonize most plants, causing no damage to their hosts, and often extending benefits, such as enhanced protection against various biotic and abiotic constraints. In the current study, three experiments assessed the activity of secondary metabolites of three strains of endophytic ...
The use of mutualistic fungal endophytes to control the banana weevil (Cosmopolites sordidus) and banana parasitic nematodes (Radopholus similis, Pratylenchus goodeyi and Helicotylenchus multicinctus) is currently being investigated at the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture. Fungal e...
Among the major constriats to highland cooking banana (Musa spp. AAA-EA) production in Uganda is the high pests infestation levels. Most important are the banana weevil cosmopolites sordidus and a complex of plant parasitic root nematodes of which Radopholus similis is the most important. Clean p...
